Cons

19th century colonial work culture.. with autocratic management.. unfair and purely one sided employee bonds for any foreign trip.. they call it a training trip but it will end up in a fake training.. non-transparent nature of any management activity or policy.. they have not heard about office automation.. ehh.. I can go on for an hour like this..
